I hate windy days!
What they say about New England weather is true. If you don’t like it, wait five minutes. This morning was very dark and rainy. I thought I would cut mom some slack and wait for it to stop before going out to do my business. The rain stopped and the sun came out and because I was so patient mom decided to let me go for a long walk. Problem is, it was verrrrryyy windy!
I don’t like it when it’s too windy. I’m afraid the wind will lift me up and carry me off. Today was really bad, there was stuff blowing everywhere. To make matters worse, it was trash day. There were plastic bottles and jugs everywhere that had blown out of people recycle bins. Not to mention the empty trash barrels rolling down the middle of the street. I was barking and growling my whole walk. Mom say I was acting like a scaredy cat.
Scared had nothing to do with it. I was annoyed that my nice morning walk was wasn’t so nice. It was like playing dodge em trying to side step all the mess. And how would she like it if one of those big green rubber barrels was headed for her? Sure, she is big enough to knock it out of the way, but if I get conked with one of those, I’m down for the count.
Well the good thing is most of that dirty snow is washed away, the sun is now out and it is quite warm. (46 here in New England feels great after a long winter.) And there were plenty of barrels around so Mom didn’t have to carry my poopy bag all the way home.

Even though I'm big, I don't like the wind either. Walking with my mom is okay, but when sent out back to my fenced yard, I always ask to come right back in. Windy garbage days are the worst, aren't they? Those red recycle bins end up everywhere around here!

I know what you mean,its is also windy here. I went for walk this morning and almost got run over by a trash can lid, it scared me so much that mommie had to pick me up as I was shaking so bad. I hurried up and finished my business so we could go into the house.

We know just how you feel, Sami. You won't believe what once happened to us. It was during a hurricane, which you probably know lasts for many hours. Well, our daddy decided that we must need to go out as it was way past our walk time. We have a courtyard home and we admit it is less windy in there as the house and privacy wall provide barriers. Still, we weren't keen on going out, and we got even more worried because our mommy was shrieking not to let us out. Needless to say, Daddy opened the door and went out with us. He was right that it was safe because the courtyard is protected, but we could hear the wind, see the tops of the trees blowing, and of course hear Mommy shrieking.
So when you have to go out in windy conditions, we think you should keep on barking and growling to express your displeasure. We are glad you are safe.
